The Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (IIMA) will host its biggest management symposium to date - from September 29 to October 2, 2017. Appropriately named the Red Brick Summit, after the famous environs that have come to be associated with over 50 years of academic excellence, the fest will be an amalgamation of the erstwhile Big Three of IIMA; Insight, Confluence and Amaethon.
This transformation has been brought with the strong belief that it shall set the stage for a business ecosystem comprising of the strengths of the three independent mega events while leveraging on the synergies that such a union would bring about.
The fest will witness stalwarts from the top echelons of the business world coming to the campus amidst an expected footfall of over 20,000 to give their insights and put their thoughts on the various facets of the business world today.
The fest will feature 16 events, 12 workshops and 8 speaker sessions over 4 days spanning across 8 conclaves namely, Entrepreneurship and Innovation; Marketing and Strategy; Finance and Technology; Sports, Media and Entertainment; Operations and Human Resources; Public Policy and Economics; Arts and Social; and Agriculture and Food.
The fest is expected to receive over 32,000 registrations and host students from over 200 national and international institutes over the 4 day period which would include participants and attendees for the workshops and speaker sessions.
TRBS is striving to depart from the norms of the management fests held so far by inviting international participation, academia and corporates to be a part of this summit so as to enhance the knowledge exchange and help us carry forward the spirit of global businesses.
